Some subtests can be unstable, failing once every X runs. Fixing them can take time: there could be an issue in the kernel or in the subtest, and it is then important to do a proper analysis, not to hide real bugs. To avoid creating noises on the different CIs, it is important to have a simple way to mark subtests as flaky, and ignore the errors. This is what this patch introduces: subtests can be marked as flaky by setting MPTCP_LIB_SUBTEST_FLAKY env var to 1, e.g. MPTCP_LIB_SUBTEST_FLAKY=1 <run flaky subtest> The subtest will be executed, and errors (if any) will be ignored. It is still good to run these subtests, as it exercises code, and the results can still be useful for the on-going investigations. Note that the MPTCP CI will continue to track these flaky subtests by setting SELFTESTS_MPTCP_LIB_OVERRIDE_FLAKY env var to 1, and a ticket has to be created before marking subtests as flaky.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
